EA breaks its silence after Iron Man gameplay leak, admitting "well, that didn't go as planned"
Electronic Arts has acknowledged a leak of early gameplay footage from its upcoming Iron Man title, admitting the situation did not go as planned. The company stated it has more to show when the project is further along in development.

The footage, as we reported yesterday , showed roughly two-and-a-half minutes of gameplay circulating via ResetEra, apparently taken from an "Aug26 test" build.
